Once again, I've focused on feathers, inking up a trio of pretties from STAMPlorations Vignette Trendy Feathers for the background, using my 'this year' fall palette of teal, purple and orange, with a whisper of gold embossing, as seen in the fourth, intricately detailed feather, which has a a solo performance on a smaller stage.

Vellum rarely appears on my cards (scares me!), but I gave it a go as a 'curtain' between the panels and a place for the embossed sentiment. Kinda worked...hmmm. Still too tricky for me to make a habit of using it, though.

Once again, a from-the-heart THANK YOU to the TIME OUT team for this wonderful opportunity! To everyone stopping by to visit - thank you and please be sure to play along; this quote truly does have a plethora of possibilities!

Such a pretty card, Carol. You did really well with the vellum. Maybe if you use it a bit at a time you'll get more comfy with it? If not, oh well, you make pretty cards without it anyway! Thanks so much for sharing this beauty and have a happy day! Hugs! :)

Oh my Carol, this is WONDERFUL! Love that color palate!!!! And so proud of you for facing your vellum fears. Therow them out the window - this si awesome! Love that you embossed center stage feather in gold. Just an awesome card. xx So very happy that you designed with us at Time Out!

Another stunner to inspire our participants, Carol. Love the soft colors and feel of this, and the vellum is amazing. You must continue to be brave and use it. It looks great. Thanks again for being our Guest Designer at Time Out.

Dreamy, delicate and downright lovely, Carol ... you've used the vellum so perfectly with those delicious feathers ... it adds such a wonderful soft touch! Thanks so much for being such an inspirational Guest Designer! Hugs, Anita :)

The feathers are beautiful & I always love the look of vellum--perfect here, Carol! PS--thanks for the photo editing tip. At this point I'm using one for the editing & one for the watermark. Sure miss the auto fix for the exposure--darn that Picmonkey for charging now!

Welcome

Welcome to "Just Me: c", my work-in-progress, new learning space where I dabble in the 'art of the card.' I'm an enthusiastic amateur, with plenty to learn. Sometimes - okay, often - silly 'what was she thinking' things will appear. Thanks for stopping by...
